Join Adam J. Kurtz as he gives his acclaimed lecture, anecdotes and advice. He'll talk about not waiting for permission to make personal work that is actually personal, and how he's made that his whole thing somehow. He'll also guide you on drawing and writing activities from his latest book, PICK ME UP: A Pep Talk For Now & Later. This weird, optimistic book pushes you along with unexpected prompts, “existential activities, ” some dark humor, and pages that keep you #connected, even when you feel alone. More than anything, you’ll build your own guide now for figuring shit out later – because someone telling you to “cheer up” is infuriating, but a pep talk from yourself might just work. Watch yourself change as you record and reflect on where you are and where you’re going.

Purchase your very own copy of Adam's book PICK ME UP from Amazon.

    I LOVE @CreativeLive... Call me a CreativeLive Stalker if you will! ;). LOL I am ALWAYS stopping by to see what's new and tonight, this morning really - 3AM - I woke up, and wandered over to my computer and here I am. I needed to hear all of this. THANK YOU @CreativeLive for discovering Adam J Kurtz, and THANK YOU Adam J Kurtz for being YOU and REMINDING all of us... We just have to be authentic and be ourselves and JUST DO IT! Now I'm wide awake and probably won't be able to go back to sleep, but... IT WAS WORTH IT!!! For sure, I WILL BE listening to this again and again for inspiration to just put myself out there more fully! Roz Fruchtman aka @RozSpirations
